Nothin' but the TV On
Lewis Brice Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The only thing I really want
Is a lowkey night at home
Spend a little time, sip a little wine
You and me all alone

Twisted up in these sheets
Catchin' up on Stranger Things
Holdin you close
You know how this goes
Girl we gon be tired in the mornin'

Ooh, nothin compares to a night like this
Ooh, you're my favorite show I don't wanna miss
We don't need to go anywhere
Let's lay it down and just stay right here
You and me with nothin but the tv on
Nothin but the tv on

Leave the dishes in the sink
You relax I'll get the drinks
I'll put a movie on, sing you a song
Anything that you want

Ooh, nothin compares to a night like this
Ooh, you're my favorite show I don't wanna miss
We don't need to go anywhere
Let's lay it down and just stay right here
You and me with nothin but the tv on
Nothin but the tv on

Let's turn down the lights
Turn off our phones
Turn on the night
And lose all control

Ooh, nothin compares to a night like this
Ooh, you're my favorite show I don't wanna miss
We don't need to go anywhere
Let's lay it down and just stay right here
You and me with nothin but the tv on
Nothin but the tv on

Ooh, nothin compares to a night like this
Ooh, you're my favorite show I don't wanna miss
We don't need to go anywhere
Let's lay it down and just stay right here
You and me with nothin but the tv on
Nothin but the tv on




Nothin but the tv on
Nothin but the tv on
